Good one Danji... ahhh yes... such is Suchness...! (really nice word!)

I need suchness today; in fact I need to be reminded of suchness every day. Thank you for the reminder today.
Dan...will you meet me at the Albq airport...Suchness, USA?
Seriously, this is a powerful concept. Thank you.
You're all welcome!
